[Verse 1]
It's funny how
You were just a stranger
In the crowd
Looking right through me
[Verse 2]
Now you see
All the shit I carry
You say you don't mind
You don't mind
[Pre-Chorus]
You're the only one that I wanna run to
Into your room
I try not to overthink all about you
Don't know how to
[Chorus]
Did you mean what you said? Is it all in my head?
I'll be a fool for love 'cause that's all I've wanted
Catch a cold, catch your death, if you're playing pretend
Only time will tell me how this could all end
Honestly, you might be my downfall
If romance is dead, keep playing till I forget
Don't wanna forget you yet
[Verse 3]
2 a.m.
Pull me back under the covers
I'll be sad to see the sunrise
If this night won't make you mine
[Pre-Chorus]
You're the only one that I wanna run to
Into your room
I try not to overthink all about you
Don't know how to
[Chorus]
Did you mean what you said? Is it all in my head?
I'll be a fool for love 'cause that's all I've wanted
Catch a cold, catch your death, if you're playing pretend
Only time will tell me how this could all end
Honestly, you might be my downfall
If romance is dead, keep playing till I forget
Don't want to forget you yet
Did you mean what you said? Is it all in my head?
I'll be a fool for love 'cause that's all I've wanted
Catch a cold, catch your death, if you're playing pretend
Only time will tell me how this could all end
Honestly, you might be my downfall
If romance is dead, keep playing till I forget
Don't want to forget you yet

I wrote “romance is dead” after realizing i was holding on to a version of love that no longer existed.
This song is for anyone who’s ever felt abandoned in something that once felt like everything.
